...I Hate you... (I must confess:the big thing is just the chaper title,lol.i decided to call the story Four Years,Seven days!)

(Should I say something here like 'Disclaimer,I dont own DBZ ,DBGT or any of its characters'?Thought so..)
"Bra,I promise I'll do whatever you want tomorrrow,but mom needs me right now!!"

"Fine,fine," said Bra,rolling her eyes as she said so.But then she smirked evilly. "But you WILL do the dare tomorrow,right Pan?"

Pan couldnt help it.She shivered. "Yeah,sure,whatever.but I gotta go NOW!" "Okay!" Bra called out after Pan as she took off into the air."But remember!TOMORROW! You won't be here for very long,so hurry UP!"

Pan only turned her head and waved in response,leaving Bra to go back inside her house. As soon as Pan was out of earshot...

"Hey Marron!Yea,its me Bra,listen! Something came up and Pan won't be able to do a dare til tomorrow-yes,I KNOW She's leaving next Sunday,cut me some slack here,will ya?!Okay,I need you to come up with a MONSTER dare by tomorrow-Because I can't think of any just now,and my genius ebbs away from me at this moment-YES I know that isn't proper english,will you get off my back already?!-I am SO not acting like a baby!You know what?Just get here by tomorrow around six-No,I want you here early-So what if you dont get up til 8?Just do it,do it,do it!! (getting a little phoebe-ish,arent we?lol)

~~~~~~~~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~

Marron yawned as she woke up,stretching.Looking at her clock,she read the time as '5:35'. 'Too early...I need a bit more sleep,' she thought drowsily. When she 'awoke' a second time,it was 6:54.

"Oh crap!" said the

(crud,I cant remember her age!If Bra is 20,and Pan 19 (Going on twenty) how old does that make Marron?About 30,no?)

thirty year old blonde. "Mommy,Daddy,I've gotta jet!Bra is expecting me!Dont expect me or the aero back til around midnight maybe,kay?!" "This early?!" came the unpleasant grown from a sleepy Krillin. "Yeah,she called last night!Bye!"

Krillin turned over and went back to sleep.He was never going to figure his daughter out.(Okay,doesnt he die or something,according to the series?I like Krillin *pouts* He STAYS!)

'Driving' her way across the ocean,only one thought presented itself under Marrons blonde pigtails...'Crap,she's gonna kill me,crap she IS Gonna kill me!Better think of something quick,' she thought,remembering the previous nights' conversation.After ten minutes of deliberation,Marron snapped her fingers in the air in a mild representation of a finger victory dance."Bra ISNT going to kill me!" she shouted happily....

Then she remembered to grab the steering wheel....

~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~

Meanwhile,Pan....

"Mom,please-" "No,you told me that Bra wanted to do something with you today and you ar going to do it!You've never flaked on anything before,missy,and I'm not going to let you start now!" "But mom,you have NO IDEA what she could make me do !Im am at her mercy Ma,please don't make me do this!" "I am and I will.Out,young lady!" " *sigh* "Fine..."

Flying off into the sky,Pan was freaking out.Normally,things like this didn't scare her.'Bra usually gets me to do stupid things,like freeze Uncle Tens boxers,put honey in Trunks hair gel...'hehe,wouldnt mind doing that again,' she thought wickedly.Trunks..she swore he never looked so funny in her LIFE! That thought in mind,Pan fell out of the sky in a fit of laughter,only to be caught by her father,who was actually outside at the time and saw her."Honey,you've got to be more careful!What if something happened to you?!" "Dad,im a quarter saiyan,remember?I couldnt die even I wanted to!"

Although Gohan glared at his only daughter,he let her off,seeing as this was somewhat true.But still..."Pan,what exactly DID make you fall ?You never lose control like that!It must have been something pretty big,and I want answers.It better be good,young lady!" he reprimanded.Pan was in biiiig trouble..."See daddy,I was just thinking about something that Bra made me do once...and the results were so hilarious that the thought ....made me laugh," "What was the thought,then," asked Gohan,eyebrow raised.Pan sighed."Replace Truks favorite hair gel with honey.He had a date that night anyways,and...oh Kami it was funny!" she couldnt help shouting,falling to the floor in laughter.Gohan sighed in relief.He hah seen the results,and had to admit that his daughters' work was...quite creative and amusing.

"Well,Videl told me you were to go to the Briefs household,so..off you go!And next time you think of something like that,try to keep it under control.will ya?" "Will do,daddy!" assured Pan with a salute."Bye!" "Bye," responded Gohan.He loved his little girl to death,but Pans going away to college not only made him proud.She was going to leave next week and the thought was killing him.'A day without my little Panny?Unthinkable!' he thought,as he continued with his work.

~~~~

"I've really got to calm down' thought Pan.She was over reacting when she laughed,and she knew it.What she couldn't understand was why she couldnt stop herself from falling when she did.She hadn't admitted to her father that she had tried to stop herself,but couldn't.That was a safety and a danger to her,she knew,but she couldn't have dad worry over her as he had the past nineteen years or so of her life.'You've gotta let me fly solo,pops,' she thought.'My wings cant spread if I'm carried all the time!'

This thought in mind,she flew the rest of the way to Bras' in silence.

It was about 4:15.

~~~~~~

~~Back to earlier that morning~

"Marron,you are BEYOND late!What the hell took you?!" "Someone woke up on the wrong side of the bed," smirked Marron.Bra responded,"No,just early,cause your lazy derier wouldnt get here on time!Now cut it out and start throwing some ideas!"

Marrons smirk grew bigger."Of course,your highness!" "Yeah,you know it!Now give!" "You know how Pan likes Trunks,right?" "I dont' think big bro likes Pan as much as he used to since she ,erm,'switched' the honey with his gel...well,go on,I'm interested," "Well,lets just say that in order to add to Pans' torture,we are going to need to go on a major shopping spree!" Marron squealed.Yes,even a thirty year old woman loved to go shopping.Bra was just as enthusiastic,if not more. "Great Idea!But then the dare would be wasted on that," she pouted."Your idea officially stinks," "No it doesn't.As I recall,she owes you a few favors,right?You could get her to spend some money on you!You know,automatic pampering!It's the I- dare- you-,-you- thank -me -by -buying!See?What could go wrong?" "Bad joke,blondie,but I may just like where this is headed.Nothing personal,kay?" "Big deal.Just get her to'Shop Til You Drop World' around four.You WON'T be sorry!" she cackled."But whats the 'plan!?' "asked Bra,annoyed."You know how people can get those too cute personalized T-shirts and tanktops that say,'I love you' and then the guy or girls name?" Bra suddenly smiled. "OH MY GOD,that is so EVIL! I LIKE it!" Bra giggled.'Oh yes,' she thought.'Its about time Pan confessed!She wont be back for another four years or so anyways!' thought Bra.Marrons thought,while similar in appearance to Bras,was nothing but malicious....
~~~ P POV

All I could think about was what Bra could be planning..I was up for anything as long as I didn't get anyone.I mean,I didn't have any problems with leaving my enemies embittered,but leaving behind friends to turn them into enemies...I just couldn't do that to Bra,much less for her!I love my parents,Mrs Bulma is nice,Vegeta...yea,well Vegeta,and 18 is cool.Krillin is funny and he already got on 17s' bad side,which is bad enough for me.And I definitely don't want Trunks or uncle Goten going at my throat...Nope,definitely don't want them mad at me. I'm never afraid of a dare,cause really,who could hurt me?Well,apart from maybe the Z team,speaking of which I should visit Piccollo sometime...oh wait,thats right,Bra's gonna dare me to do somehing later and I have no idea what,focus Panny,focus!

Her house is coming into view.Hmmm,this is interesting,it looks like Marrons parents are visiting again.Oh wait,Marron came alone.Okay Bra,what are you up to?!

~~~~

B POV (and author?)

I saw Pan flyin toward the house,but from what I saw,she was taking her time.It was already around 4:30,wasn't it?If Marron was supposed to come around 6 (And came late) Then Pan should have come earlier.

"Too late Pan!I already saw you,so get your butt back down to earth!" called Bra.Pan grinned sheepishly.She knew Bra had seen her,but Bra hadn't made any obvious motion to show that she did.

"Its shopping for us today!Marron's coming along too!"

I shouted. Pan seemed to shake her hair as if just the thought was going to kill her. "Shopping?!" she whined."I thought this was a dare?!No fair,I'm outta here!" "In order to do the dare,we are going to need to do some serious shopping.And trust me girlfriend," I said,looking Pan up and down."What?" "You NEED it!Now COM'ERE!" I shouted,grabbing my lifelong friend by the arm with surprising strength and pulling her into the house,passing a grumpy big brother. "Moms not gonna be happy when she finds out you skipped again,bro!" Trunks glared at his sister,not noticing Pan."Shove it,Bra." It was only then that he noticed the raven haired."Oh,uh hi Pan,""See ya 'Bro!" she laughed as Bra led her away running."You can be so mean to him,ya know?Oh well!" said Pan,her attitude completely changed.She was literally thrown into Bras room where Marron was talking to a door for some reason.

Bras' room in this case had three doors.Two leading into her room or out,the other for a shower/bathroom.

The entire place was covered in the latest fashions,from clippings from magazines to boy band pictures.Pan wanted to puke,I could tell.Too bad for her!

"How can you stand this stuff?!" she said,shaking.Oh shoot,she WAS going to throw up wasnt she?!

"Goten,get your lazy butt outta there!I need to use the restroom!" shouted Marron.

~~~ P POV

I don't know why,but as soon as I got to Bras room,I wanted to puke. All those pictures...yuck!Oh,geez,doesnt she know these things sicken me?!Well,I maybe over reacting a little,but my whole make -me- puke- problem sure wasn't a joke.

"How can you stand this stuff?!" I had asked,shaking in mild convulsions.Dang,I was going to throw up all over the room and soon if I didn't get to a bathroom first! It was about then that I heard Marron shouting,"Goten get your lazy butt outta there,I need to use the restroom," and I finally realized why she was 'talking' to the door in the first place.Wow,maybe she isn't a dumb blonde after all,but this isn't the time to talk about that.

Making my way to the door quickly (And that is fast) I banged on the door shouting,"Uncle 'Ten,Get your butt out right now unless you want to wear my vomit!NOW!"I didn't give him much of a choice,though, as I kicked open the door and threw him out,putting the door in the way so I could upchuck in peace.By the time I was finally done,even Trunks was out there yelling and asking if I was okay.I had a bit of a hard time getting the door out of the way so that Marron could do what she needed to do,but I eventually did it.I was feeling pretty tired about then,but there was no way I was going to show weakness in front of Bra.I jst told them I'd fix the door sometime and tried to fall asleep on Bras door,ignoring uncle,Bra,and Trunks.I needed sleep,and even being watched by my childhood crush wasn't going to change that.

~~~~ T POV

I really wish Pan could be more careful.I literally flew to Bras door when I heard the shouting and found everyone,meaning Bra-chan,Marron and Goten yelling at Bras...broken bathroom door?! Jogging over (Bras room is too big for her own good) I realized they were shouting at Pan. Turns out she had a 'sick' spell and that she got pretty unbalanced for a moment,but went a little overboard when she kicked the door off its hinges,literally threw Goten out the door,and went inside,slamming the door back in place.Guess she didn't want anyone to witness anymore of her fall from grace.I don't think she knows I'm not mad at her for the honey thing anymore.It's really okay.I mean,she was about sixteen at the time.Almost three years ago. I know I shouldn't have worried,but she was in there for a while,and by then I was ready to break the door open,but feared doing so because of the retching noises I heard,not to mention the splashes in the toilet..

By the time she got out,Marron had almost wet her pants and ran in there like a whirlwind,not even heeding Pan when she put the door 'in place' again.

As she turned back around to face everyone,she attempted to smile and said,"I'll fix it later," then flopped down on Bras bed with a sigh.

I saw Bra heading towards Pan,but she was standing over her for about ten seconds before she back away,turning to meet us.She pushed us out the door (Goten and I ), and said I would be fine.Those two really are the best of friends.They remind me so much of me and Goten.Mind you,they practically are the next generation,making me and Ten old school.Not a comforting thought when I felt so young.Gods I hate being thirty...

I couldnt argue with Bra though,I sure didn't want to deal with a sleepy Pan.But I wanted to at least make sure she was okay.Everyone was out of her room by way past 5:00,and I had to sneak my way in.Poor Pan...She was breathing heavily,I hadn't noticed that.Was she dreaming?Her face was contorting in what I could only assume to be pain,because she obviously wasn't having fun with whatever dream she was having.I tentatively made my way to the bed,and noticed she was in pain.She kept murmuring things in her sleep,and she couldnt have been asleep for more than an hour .I thought I heard her say,"Not,Bra!Not you too,Trunks!Goten!Marron!Mom,Pop,18,Krillin,Mr Piccollo,Bulma,Vegeta,not everyone,not again! Dont take them away again!Fine,but not them,not anymore!It's me you want isnt it?!" This was really scaring me.She was dreaming of me?And my sister,and her family,and everyone in general.. I was going to wake her up,but....she beat me to it.She woke up screaming with her eyes still closed for the most part.She sure scared the hell out of me!

~~~~ Pans Point of View.

"AAAGH!" The nightmare... The voices...not the voices!

Oh gosh,I had to hang my head in despair.I can't believe this is happening again,not so soon.I always had this dream at least once a year,sometimes once every month,but never more than that.I was so upset that I hadnt noticed anyone was there until I fully realized that they had been screaming as well.I think I only really realized it when that person was hugging me,making me hug them in response,Only mom really knew about these dreams,and I responded in kind,"Mom,please don't let them do it again!I cant bear to lose them,not like that!" I think I just about jumped out of my skin when I realized the person comforting me was Trunks.I also can safely conclude that he was not ready for my reaction.I managed to see that he was still rubbing his chin by the time I ran out of there.When I got to the door,though,Bra caught me and flew me off into the sky,explaining that Marron was on the way and that she was happy I was feeling better now,since we were going to have to fly like this to the mall,what with me passing out and all.I thought Saiyans didn't get sick?I guess I shouldntt have taken the 1/4 thing too lightly.Apparently,this means I can still get sick.When will I learn? We got to Marrons fave mall,a big surprise for me,seeing as Marrons favorite mall is "Shop Til You Drop",and the place annoys the heck out of me.It's this gigantic cement mall with purple paint all over it,very flashy.It must have five thousand entrances,and the place is so big that it isn't just five stories high,It also goes underground.

I like the underground store,its this gigantic warehouse type deal,and the store is called "Underground FF's" And I have to admit;The mall itself may be cheesy,but this one store rocks.Its mostly a skaters type deal,but the clothes there are great.Bra,of course,hates the store and practically demands that I share her interests,just because we're friends.She never wants to spar,so why should I?Because we're friends,or haven't you already learned that?

In any case,when we landed,we saw Marron not too far behind,so Bra flagged her down and we went in;all three of us.

First stop?There wasn't any planned stop.In fact,they were looking at all the carts that they have.You know,the ones with all the toys and cell phone covers,strategically placed throughout the mall?Yeah,those.We actually stopped in front of one so we could take pictures.The girls made me take over four pictures,saying it was one for every birthday of mine they would miss,so I complied.I will never forgive them,however,for making me wear that 'baby suit'.I swear,the photographer guy was drooling by the time I got my clothes back,and a lot of guys wouldn't stop cheering.,Funny,I always thought these things were supposed to be private?! And that was the third suit.

You can imagine I kind of liked the one of me as a 'rebel',which I took later in the Underground FF's.The leather looked nice,but I didn't like the feel of it too much.I think I'll stick to my black denim jacket,leather gloves and the chains the went on my pants belt loops.Give me the 'Freedom Fighters' look anytime.Bra was disgusted,naturally,but wouldn't stop commenting on how 'pretty' I looked when the guy reluctantly handed over the 'baby' picture.Marron seemed a little peeved,but she hadn't said anything yet. That was three pitures then.The fourth,and what could have been the fifteenth if Bra had gotten her way, was one of me as a 'mermaid'.

This photographer surprisingly enough worked for the Underground FF's,and asked if it should be 'dry land' or actually underwater.Bra,of course,opted for the most expensive.

Under the water I went.I had a weirdo mermaids tail...

It was a bluish kind of green and glimmered .It had these cool extra fins that would have been somewhere near my shins,not to mention the actual 'flippers',which were so not Little Mermaid materia. I actually liked that one,but the guy insisted I was supposed to take off my top.When I almost knocked his teeth out for suggesting something so stupid,Bra opted to let me wear a top.Her (eeck!) bra,which(can you imagine?!) was blue! It matched the outfit,and I have to admit. I looked good. I had taken perhaps four pictures of that.Bra really wanted a lot of pictures.I'm not even sure if it was four anymore,all I know is I took a lot of pictures underwater.I got to see one,and I wanted to keep it.It was basically me swimming,of course,but the tail kinda flowed right along with me,and although my arms were down,as if I were doing 'the torpedo',I seemed to be looking just beyond the camera.My hair has grown out a lot since fourteen,and it reaches to my waist,I hardly ever let it down,though,and I have to admit: I make a pretty fine mermaid,hahaha! I wanted Bra to take a few as well,seeing as what I had to go through,but she said this day was,quote unquote,"You and you only,Pan!"

~~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ B POV

Oh ma God,I am sooo jealous!Pan is beautiful,I don't know why she wouldnt tell my bro about how she feels!um,or felt...well,that doesn't matter!She better tell tonight or else!If Marrons plan is what I think it is,we're gonna lock Pan in a room with Trunks somehow and not letting them out until Pan confesses.From there on,she is free as a bumblebee,but until then,it's all her today!I promised myself not to get anything for myself....hmm,I think Pan needs a few tanktops...oooh,skirts!And long gloves!She definitely needs some!

~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~

M POV

Somehow,I don't think Bra was as into looking for the shirt as I was.I personally was looking all over for the shirt,but Bra was busy buying everyhing in sight.I found a store that I thought would have them,and surprisingly did.As you could imagine,Bra was actually broke by then.Whatever happened to pampering,Bra? Oh well.I took out my wallet and asked the cashier if we could have it personalized.When asked for the name,I told her to have them type 'Trunks' after 'I Love You',and that we needed the shirt for a friend by tonight.I guess she didn't believe me,but she took the money and said to be back in a few hours,like 9:00 or something.I thought that was weird,since the store usually closes around 9:15,and they get people out of here by way before then. I almost feel bad for doing this to Pan...Not!!

~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~

By the time all three women had left the stores,Pan was very exhausted,and Bra was making her carry a majority of the things they brought (Which towered over Pan ) And Marron the rest.She herself carried only the cell phone,which she used to call 'daddy'.

"Aw,please daddy?For me?We really can't do this on our own!Please,for your little girl?"

"Yeah Vegeta,do it for your little girl!She's about to kill us with this stuff!" shouted Marron.Pan would have laughed,but feared dropping the shopping bags and other things.

"Yay!Thanks Daddy!Luv ya!Bye!" Bra snapped the cell phone shut."We're seeeet!" she said,holding up two fingers in the form of the 'victory' sign.Marron was still very afraid of Vegeta,even though Pan should have dreaded it the most. The girls shared 'pleasant' conversation in which Bra got her chance to brag about her all of her accomplishments.Pan hung her head on the shopping bag nearest her,a rather fluffy one from some toy store that she suspected Bra had actually bought for someone other than herself. Despite her friends' claims that this day was 'all her',the dare had yet to be fulfilled. "So Bra," asked Pan as they waited."Why did we come here anyway?I thought I was on a dare?!If I had known it was to 'model' for you,I wouldn't have had to get worried sick that you were going to make me do something I'd regret!" "Aw,I'm sorry Pan!I thought you were just plain sick," she laughed.Pan had to shy away when Bra tried to hug her,however.She was still carrying those accursed bags."Ah,maybe later Bra.You got me in this mess,your dad is gonna have to get me out!" After laughing it up for a few more minutes,one of the Briefs family Aero cars came down.The driver,unfortunately,was not who they expected.

"Hey Bra!Pan!Are you okay?" yelled Goten from his position.He was half hanging out the window.Bra smiled and looked up waving,leaving Pan and Marron standing with all the bags. "Hey Goten!Bro!I wondered when you guys would get here!" Bra laughed. Pan nearly dropped the bags when she heard who Bra was calling,but managed to keep her composure.'Oh crappity crap!' she thought."Uh,a little help here?!" she yelled.While Goten went over to help Marron,Trunks actually heard Pans muffled cries for help and went over to help."And I thought I could always count on family!" she laughed.Trunks wasnt laughing.He couldn't get a grip on the bags,there were way too many!"Ahah!" shouted Trunks when he thought he had them.

Boy was he right.

Apparently,he grabbed something else along with those bags,and Pan wasn't too happy about it."It was an honest mistake,Pan" grumbled Trunks from the drivers seat.Pan had her legs and arms crossed,and she was looking out the window.She was pretty mad at him just then."Hmmph!" was all she would respond.Marron was giggling to herself silently,and Goten wouldn't stop scratching his head in typical Goku form.Bra was looking from her best friend to her big brother worriedly.'Oh man,this wasn't supposed to happen!' Everything was back to normal when they got back to the Briefs household,however,and Pan even thanked Trunks for the help.

Marron,however,was no longer amused.

'I'm gonna make then hate each others guts by the end of the night!' she thought vehemently.
Marron had to go back for the pictures and shirt but was back in a matter of minutes. When she came back,she and Bra went to Bras' room with the stuff and came back without them.They did,however,return carrying a white shirt with a red heart on it.

"Wear," declared Bra,throwing the shirt onto Pans head."Why?" she said suspiciously,throwing the shirt off of her head."Because I want you to!Now wear it!" "Fine,but never again,okay?!" "Sure sure," said Bra as she walked away.Pan glared.She knew Bra wasn't listening,but then,when did she ever?Okay,maybe when Pan was ready to tell secrets,but usually only then. Looking around,Pan saw no one in sight,so she took off her shirt and pulled on the white one.It was just a little too short for comfort,and it showed off her belly button;something her pants usually didn't allow...

Pan suddenly turned around. "Strange.I could have sworn I heard foot steps..' She thought. Shrugging it off,she went to find Bra,nearly running into her uncle."Hey Goten,have ya seen Bra?" "No Panny.Why'd you ask?" "Because she's making me wear this shirt and it is way too short!Not to mention unbearably tight!I think she chose a baby size on purpose!" she growled,and stomped off in search of her best friend.Goten,however,got a full view of her back and burst out laughing."Oh man,Trunks is gonna LOVE this!"

'Bra,I'm gonna kill you and whoever watched me dressing when I find you both!' Pan thought as she walked the corridors of the Briefs estate very much alone.She had found Bulma a few minutes earlier and asked for Bra as well,but received no helpful answer.Unfortunately,even Bulma saw what the back of the shirt read,and almost laughed herself silly,but was wary of the chemicals in her hands,so she didn't dare.

"Bra?BRAA-aaaaah!Where are you-oof!"

She had been shouting,but somehowe ran into something else.Whatever this thing was,it was hard enough to send her to the floor.

"Ouch," said Pan matter of factly as she rubbed her head. "You're getting weak,girl," came a strange voice.Pan felt like saying "Can it,Vegetable head," but didn't dare.Instead,she slapped her attacker,because she had heard him laugh."Gimme a break,Trunks," grumbled Pan as Trunks put his hand out to help her out."Help me search for Bra and the perv who watched me while I was dressing!" "First of all,Bra is in her room-" this only got Trunks a glare from Pan,"And second,who was watching you dress?!" "Some perv in the hall way.For all I know,it could have been Marron!Or," Pan shivered,"Uncle Ten was checking me out.Yikes!," "Okay,"soothed the older,"Where were you when you were changing,anyways?From the way you're saying it,sounds like you were in a hallway!" "Okay,listen up:Yes,I WAS in the hallway,I just told you!But only cause I lost Bra!" "uh oh," murmured Trunks.He forgot about Pans 'saiyan hearing',and wasn't smart enough to not whisper,"I'm in biiiig trouble," then running away.This,of course,made Pan more than a little suspicious,but she let it slide.Sure enough,Bra was in her room,and she was modeling.

"Bra,unless your room has a deathwish,stop with the prancing already," groaned Pan. "Not unil you see the pictures!The mermaid ones came out fabulous,you really oughta see 'em!" "Please,not now!Sleeeep!" whined Pan."Hey Bra,can I stay with you guys tonight?In this state,I'm gonna fall to the floor asleep!" "Well,wake up because we have a long night ahead of us!How much did you sleep last night anyways?!"

"Oh,maybe five hours," Pan yawned.Bra nearly slapped Pan for saying such a thing,but didn't.Even though she was the saiyan princess AND half saiyan,Pan was more of a fighter than she was. "Fine,sleep an extra hour,see if I care,but don't come crying to me when you have a nightmare!" snorted Bra.Pan rolled her eyes and threw herself onto Bras bed.She was asleep in minutes.

~~~ P POV

Okay,I have to admit:Having that nightmare again was scary.Not having my mom there at first was even a little frightening.Just a little.But waking up practically in Trunks arms will scare the crud out of ANYONE,specifically me.I think I might have gotten him mad as well.I'm pretty sure he didn't appreciate getting a whack on the chin.And oh man,he even helped me find Bra!There must have been something funny about that stupid I Love shirt,because Goten was laughing his head off when I turned to leave,and I could have sworn I heard Bulma giggling quietly,but I never heard a peep from Bras' brother.I don't know if that's a blessing in disguise or very bad.Just his reaction to the peeping tom was a little thought provoking,but I'm not gonna go into detail.In any case,I told Bra I wanted to sleep and did.I definitely don't want to wake up again,but Bra has that dare thing going on,and I'm forever in her services if I don't do it.She's yelling for me now.I guess I should drag my butt out of bed to see whats the matter.In all honesty,even Michael Myers could have killed me with out problems and I honest to Kami I wouldn't give a damn.My,my,when did I become such a potty mouth?I'd never tell dad,but my cell phone slinging uncle was a bad influence on me as a child,hehehe.I've been restraining it for now,'cause I want Bra to remember me as 'nice' these next four or so years.I mean,think about it! I'm going to be going to California for four years!Stanford!One of the 'supposed' best schools in America!I'm just glad my english is perfect.I don't even have an accent!Bulma and Trunks had to teach me of course,so I had top teachers.I mean,with their jobs,how could they not pick up a language foreign to them?I hope I can learn a little of four different languages while I'm over there,I know that would make Obaa-san proud to call me her grandaughter and Ojii-san would be so glad.I still miss him.Better stop reminiscing and drag my butt out of bed.Why am I so tired lately?.... ....

~ ~ ~ ~ ~

"Marron,shhh!" "Uuh,girls?I can hear you,its pointless," "Ah!Pan!Just the girl we were looking for!" enthused Bra,coming up to Pan and grabbing her right arm,making Pan give her a strange look.Marron grabbed her left arm while Pan eyed Bra,getting Pan a little worried."Uh,guys?What,may I ask, are you doing?"

"Ah,yes,Pan!You know that little dare you owed me?Well,this is it!I bet you never saw the back of that shirt,did you?Well,that's cause it was specially made for Trunks viewing!"

"You mean to tell me it was HIM watching me change in the corridors?!Sick!" "He watched you dress in the hall?!" shouted Marron in disbelief.She couldn't hide a light and very faint note of surprising jealousy from presenting itself in her voice. "I know,Kami!" "Well,funny thing you should mention Bro,Panny!You're gonna show him that shirt you're wearing!" "But he kind of already saw it,though,didn't he?Gross as its sounds," added Pan with a slight snort and shiver of disgust."To think I woke up to find him hugging me!Eepers,huh?!" "You woke up hugging him?!" asked Marron,again,in disbelief."HE was hugging ME,and I still don't know why! I'm so confused," she said in a cute but pained voice.

"Yeah,well we all are,but you owe me this dare Pan,and I'm not gonna let you slide this time!" Pan whined about it,but all she could do was let herself be dragged.It didn't stop her from trying to change their minds,however.You must be stupid if you thought she was gonna give up without a fight,even a whiny kind.

"Please Bra,anything else?!I don't want to do this!" "Too bad," "Come on,I'll do anything else!Hide Gotens cellphone while telling him I lost it,get Trunks girlfriend as of now of break up wth him-" "(Marron) Hey!" "- Get that one guy at CC to actually look at you,what's his name,Jun?Please,just not this!" "Why not?" "Because,Bra!I just dont like talking to your bro anymore!Please,reconsider?!" Ding dong. "Its too late,we already rang the freaking doorbell!Get a grip will ya?" reprimanded Bra.They had finally let Pan go,and she was not a happy quarter saiyan. She stood tall in front of them,her back to the door.The funny thing was,she had gotten taller than Bra and Marron was not any taller than her,so even though Pan was the youngest,she was indesputably the tallest as well.

"Pan,its too late!We ALREADY rang the doorbell!" reminded Marron."Shut it blondie!And Bra,I thought this was something puke worthy?!Show him this shirt?! Take it off of me,I can throw it in his face and he'll see plenty of it!" she shouted."What is so special about this shirt that he has to see me wear it anyway,huh?!Why not Marron or,better yet,uncle ten?!Take the stupid shirt,give me mine!" she said,beginning to take the shirt off her back,but then reconsidering.She didnt have her shirt with her,and Trunks seeing her wearing nothing but Nike shoes and black jeans was a disturbing thought.

'Do not want to do that,' she thought.

"Actually,know what?Never mind that,just tell me why I need to show him this shirt?" What she didn't know was that she was doing everything Marron wanted to.

'Soon he'll see the shirt and hate her forever!My god,I am such a genius!When he sees that shirt,he's gonna get ideas,Pan is going to be uncomfortable around him and she'll be leaving next week!They won't get a good chance to convo for four years!I love me so much!' were Marrons personal thoughts as she smirked evilly at the two unsuspecting saiyans before her.

T POV

I wanted to tell Pan that I liked her as a friend and perhaps more,but that was when I saw her in the hallways.I couldnt stop staring at her,um, *cough cough* well,I couldnt stop staring at her!She was taking off her shirt and putting another one on,but I guess Bra picked it out for her because it showed off her stomach.I couldn't tell her then! I ran.

To make matters worse,about midnight that night (well tomorrow,but who wants to go into detail?Not me!) I heard voices outside my door and went over to investigate. Before opening the door,however,I realized who those voices belonged to. One of the voices was obviously Pan,for which I was glad. Another was Marron,though she hardly got a word in edgewise.I felt bad for her,of course,because the reason she couldn't talk was my little sister. I didn't want to interrupt,since this conversation of theirs was taking an interesting turn.They mentioned me and a shirt,so I looked out the window.Thank kami I was out of sight,and I saw the shirt.I hadn't realized what the back of the shirt read,but when I read it,my chest started feeling funny.

I ran to the door to hopefully surprise them,but I opened it slowly,managing to hear Pan say,"..need to show him this shirt.." before I had opened it all the way,I saw Bra and Marron, both gasped;Bra in some kind of fear,and Marron in what I thought was excitement.

Pan must have not heard the door,because she had continued with her speech until she saw the look on Bras face....

~~~~ !!! P POV

I was shouting until I saw Bra and Marron stare at something behind me.

"What?" I asked,when Bra wouldn't close her mouth.Marron looked like she wanted to laugh and Bra looked scared. She obviously came back to Earth though, when I asked 'what' ,cause she managed to point to something behind me.It was only then that I sweatdropped.

"Trunks is behind me,isn't he?" I asked tentatively,nervously.Swallowing,I slowly turned around.

What a craptastic day.I could make a living off of these words.

I smiled nervously."Hi,Trunks!What brings you he-oh,um,I meant...GET ME OUTTA HEEERE!"

I freaked. I grabbed Bra,completely forgetting about Marron,and just RAN. Funny,I seem to be doing that a lot lately.

Whee! I got the door step scene finally,this is where the fic 'ends',lol.The time? 11:11,EXACTLY,isn't that hilarious?!Tell me what you think!Remember and keep in mind that this fic was rushed from about 12:oo noon til now,lol.In all that time,I only wrote this much.Remember the swearing cousin?Yeah,he wouldnt stop hitting me and it was bugging the hell out of me.Sorry for my 'bad language',but she's nineteen!Let her swear a little bit at least?!Remember that her one and only uncle was a bad influence?LMAO! AND she's going to college in Cali!Ooh,I've always wanted to 'know' what a Pan fresh outta Cali college would behave like,lol.It's not like I haven't dreamed about it before!

me,better known on FF net as Fayes Love,lol

~~~~~~~~~~~~

"Bra,I swear to Kami,I'm going to KILL YOU!"

"Ack!Pan,it wasnt even my idea!It was Marrons!!"

"Then get HER in here too!! TWIN ENERGY BALLS!"

"PAN!My room isn't Ki proofed,ya know!Get them outta here!!" "Not until you 'fess up!" "It WAS Marrons plan!I just wanted a good dare!" "Couldn't you have made me do something ELSE other than that!?" "Hey,it was either that or take you out for your first drink with your UNCLE watching!!"

~~~~

"I'm really sorry about that Trunks," "It;s alright Marron.I just...wonder what that was all about.There was something strange about that shirt,though,I cant put my finger on it..."

Marron face faulted.

~~~~~

"Hey Bulma,have you seen Pan?We should be getting home!" "Why not let her stay the night,Goten!" "Cause she's going to college in a week and I don't want her getting drunk before then!" "Oh!Okay,she's with Bra!Have fun!" "Maybe later!See ya!"

~~~

Meanwhile,Bra lay practically unconscious on the floor in a dead faint,and Pan was screaming into one of her friends blue pillows.

By the time Bra woke up,Goten and Pan were arguing.Even though Pan had humiliated herself,she argued that Bra wouldn't see her for four years.

Goten,however,was trying to state that family was more important than friends.

"Oh really?Is that why you hung out with your girlfriend instead of ME before YOU went to college?"

Goten sweat dropped and laughed sheepishly.

"Uh,you're right!I'm just gonna call Gohan,okay-BYE!!" he said quickly and ran out of there.

~~~

Marron slowly got back up,sweatdropping the entire time.

"You mean to tell me that you never saw the back?!" "Well,yeah,I mean,she kinda ran before I could get a good look at it.Why,was there something special about it?"

'I'll say there was,' thought Marron menacingly,but she kept her good natured smile in place. "Oh no,it's just that I'm sure she's disappointed that you didn't see the shirt!Did you know that she wore it just for you?" "Oh really?" "Yea,sure!In fact,I bet she's waiting for you somewhere!"

phonily enthused Marron. Inside,she was seething. 'How could the idiot NOT see it!A giant pink heart with 'I Love You Trunks' written in it?!Men these days,ugh!And HE is supposed to be a genuis!'
Sleep Over Singing Lessons..
Pan blinked.

"Well,there goes my ride," she said slowly but calmly. "Ah,forget him!We are gonna paaar-tay,girlfriend!We're gonna stay up late and talk about boyfriends,boys boys boys all night!"

"Please Bra,not tonight!We do that all the time!I want to do things my way this itme,at least.Pwweaaase?!" begged Pan,using her famous puppy dog eyes. "Er...alright alright alright,.fine!Just...stop it already,that is sooo annoying!"

Later that night,with Marron and Trunks out of the way,Bra and Pan talked and 'partied' til sometime past three,eventually going to bed,but not sleeping.

"Hey,Pan," asked Bra. "Huh?" "What do you think..of my brother?Like,boyfriend wise,I mean?" "How can you even say something so weird?!Your bro is okay,I guess,but...eeewww!" laughed Pan.She knew that Bra knew about how she felt about him,but she also knew about how much Trunks was sought after,and marrying a girl fresh out of highschool sounded weird to her,to say the least.She knew how the media would react,and didn't want her friend to go through that again.It was bad enough without her being in the picture. "Be serious,Pan!What would you think of having my big bro for a boyfriend?" "Nah.Don't get me wrong,Bra,half the world is in love with him.Yet that is the exact thing that would keep me from him," "Nice choice of words Pan.You gonna write a poem about it one day?" asked Bra. Pan laughed.

"Of course not!I'm not that good,you know that!" "I know that I'm a princess,I know that you and Trunks would make a cute couple,it's a match made in heaven,and that you are a poet!" said Bra. Pan was calm,but made the mistake of making a bad joke.

"Who knows?I am a poet and don't even know it.It's such a curse,when it could be bad,or it could be...verse,"

Pan smiled. Bra groaned. "Bad pun,Pan," "Bad pun,Bra," "Can we stop this insanity already?!" shouted Bra. Pan laughed.

"Sure!!When the worlds collide,we can stop it!" "No more jokes,or rhymes either!"

"I couldn't help it!" laughed Pan. "This moon must be made of cheese," stated Bra,looking out her window."Why else would we be making such cheesy jokes?!" "Thank Kami it's only the crescent,huh?" "yea," Bra said faintly.

"It's worth all thats lost," murmured Pan. "Hmm?" inquired a drowsy Bra. "Just singing and thinking," whispered Pan. Bra thought about this for a moment.

"Sing."

Pan sighed,"No way!Its gotta be three already,Bra! Why should I sing so late?"

"Because Trunks might hear you?" "That is precisely why I'm not singin' ," stated Pan,who crossed her arms over her chest.

"Sing," quietly demanded the saiyan princess. "No," "Sing!" "I don' wanna!" "SING ALREADY!!"

Pan sighed long and low,but opened her mouth to argue further. "If I sing,will you let me sing the chorus?" "Of course!" "No,I mean JUST the chorus?" "Aww...Oh..oh fine then!!Just sing!" "Can I stand?" "You'd better!"

Pan got up from the bed that she had shared with Bra and stood beside it.her feet spread apart at should length,her arms at her side,face tilted upwards,and sang,

"Just to see you smile,I'd do anything that you wanted me to when all is said and done,I'd never count the cost Its worth all that's lost

Just to see you smile..." Pan breathed in and went under the covers again,leaving Bra to stare at the space that Pan had occupied in order to sing."Wow Pan," she breathed,"That was pretty good.I've never heard that song before," "You've never heard me sing period,Bra," grumbled Pan. "Pleeease!Sleeep!" "I want to her you sing again!And this time sing something in Japanese,wont ya?" "I'd rather sing in english anyday!!" "You don't know any siongs in Japanese,do you?!" "Of course I do!Just don't like singing-" "Sing!NOW!Before I havta Ki blast ya!" "Wow,Vegeta actually trained you?" "No,but I watch him all the time,It doens't look all that hard.Nevermind that,just sing!" "I thought we had a deal?! I sang,but never more!"

"Shut up Raven! Sing it girl!" "Ugh!! Fine then!!

Pan got up from the bed and stood with the same posture as before.

"Singing lessons," was her reply to the look of confusion on Bras' face. "I was wondering why you stood like that.Please,continue." "My posture," Pan corected. Pan calmed herself down and sang as emotionally as she could. It left Bra in tears,that's how good Pan was. "Wow Pan," she said,wiping at her eyes. "You really are hung up on Trunks,aren't ya?" "What?!" exclaimed Pan,as she came out of her singing trance,looking at Bra, "No no No!!i sang because that song is one of two that I care to sing in Japanese!!" "What about the pther one?" "About a puppy," stated Pan. "Oh...But then why'd you sing about,well,whatever it was you sang about?Love?"

Pan face faulted.

"You know what?!I'm gpnna sing it again,and this time you are going to listen,alright?!" "Alright!" smiled Bra. ~~~~ ~Meanwhile,Trunks had gotten up to spy on the girls,but hurried when he heard a strange melody being sung.It was so heart-wrenching that it normally would have brought a tear to his eye,but he would never admit it. He paused in the hallway when it stopped,but ran faster when he heard it begin again... ````

Bra sighed. "That was great Pan! Sing some more before you leave though,kay??

~~~~~

Trunks sighed when he realized that the 'unearthly melody' he heard had come from Pan. 'It's times like thes I wish I had reciprocated her feelings for me when she had them!'

he thought with a chuckle.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

"Did you hear that?!"

whispered Pan.

"What?!Where-" "Shhhh!! I think it's running away!Listen!"

The girls heard what sounded like footsteps,but upon ki inspection,realized it was just Trunks.

"I have to wonder what he;s doing up so late," thought Pan aloud. "Why?You aren't getting 'Ideas' are you Pan?" "Huh?!Oh,Gross Bra!!" shouted Pan,while Bra laughed. But then it was Pans turn to smile evilly. "How could you think such things about your BROTHER?" Bra gasped and looked a little sick in the moon light while Pan laughed herself silly.

"Yeah I thought so,now shut up and go to sleep!" "You can't tell me what to do!" "Yes I can,now sleep!" "Fine,but only because we should have been asleep over three hours ago,okay?!" "Yea yea,tell it to the judge,now SLEEP!" commanded Pan,thwapping her best friend for life over the head with a sky blue pillow.

The pillow fight lasted til about five,when Bra dropped to the bed asleep. Pan yawned and whispered,"I won," before sleep claimed her as well.That night she dreamt that Trunks had a dream about her ,was woken by Bulma and had to sleep with his mattress in his car,so he wanted to talk to Goten,but Goten was being a cynical bastard and teasing him relentlessly about his name and hair.

She didn't wake up until Bulma called for her,which happened to be about three hours later.

Pan looked over to the sleeping girl beside her,muttered,"You lucky bitch," while smiling,and climbed out of bed to start her second day.
